Magnetic filter DIRTSTOP MINI 3/4" M x 3/4" F, 800 µm mesh, 12,000 Gauss – IVAR.DIRTSTOP MINI – SALE
Code: 520550Product detailed description
The IVAR.DIRTSTOP MINI (code 520550) is an ultra-compact magnetic filter from the DIRTSTOP range measuring just 104 x 111 x 50 mm. It is fitted on the return pipe directly upstream of the heat source, where it protects the boiler, circulating pump, control components and heat meters from sludge and particles circulating in the system.
Two functions in one pass
- separation – a 12,000 Gauss neodymium magnet captures ferrous particles
- filtration – an 800 µm stainless steel mesh retains the remaining mechanical dirt
- the angled, transparent Grilamid chamber shows how much dirt has already been collected
Design
- nickel-plated CW617N brass body, connection 3/4" male x 3/4" female thread
- supplied with a ball valve on the system side, swivel connector on the heat source side, union fitting and check valve
- PN 3, operating temperature 0 to +90 °C, glycol mixture up to 50%
- Kv 5.0 m³/h (without check valve), indicative max. flow 1.0 m³/h
Installation and maintenance
The filter is installed horizontally or vertically in the direction of the arrow, out of direct sunlight; the check valve is inserted with the O-ring facing down. The manufacturer recommends the first cleaning one month after installation and then every two months during the heating season. The magnet is pulled out by the yellow cap without tools, and the bowl with the mesh is simply washed with water and pH-neutral soap. People with pacemakers should keep at least 1 m away from the filter.

IVAR designs, develops and manufactures highly energy-efficient heating and plumbing systems. We have over 10,000 catalogue items - mass-produced products and unique items - in addition to customised systems and combinations of complex products. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Vision
To make life easier for our clients, our clients' customers and our employees, thanks to our ability to be constantly innovative.
Mission
To design and manufacture advanced hydronic solutions that reduce installation complexity and energy consumption.
“Made in Italy” adds value
IVAR has been producing heating and plumbing system components since 1985: valves for heating bodies, direct heat metering modules, heat cost allocators, pipes and fittings, substations for heating systems, distribution manifolds, radiant panel systems, and components for solar and geothermal systems. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Over 200 people are employed at our manufacturing facilities in Prevalle (in northern Italy’s Brescia province). The site has been designed to streamline our many production and operational stages.
The Italian headquarters also acts as a hub for the wider IVAR Group, set up with the goal of distributing products beyond Italy’s borders. The group now has 11 branches, in Australia, Belgium, China, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, the United States and Tunisia.
Know How
Research, development and numerous laboratory tests guarantee that our clients’ requests can be translated into new high-efficiency products.
The stages required for production take place internally, beginning with hot forming, which is carried out at our subsidiary Valmon Stampati. Our continuous implementation of projects under the Industry 4.0 initiative also allows us to take full advantage of new releases in technology and IT to improve our manufacturing efficiency.
As a company, IVAR is constantly evolving. Every day, we invest in strengthening our products, in improving our production processes and in attaining new patents and certifications.
